Property Arad (Romania)

Probably the most important private residence in Arad (if we exclude the palaces), Neuman House was the property of the most prestigious family in the history of the city. After the communists seized it, it became the Guest House of Arad county and was used as a protocol residence by the Ceaușescu family, including for official meetings between heads of state. Retroceded to the heirs in the 2000s, the imposing construction, today private property, is now ready to add new pages to its rich history. The Neuman House situated on Horia street is an architectural jewel that impressed over time many businessmen, artists or heads of state. The house discloses its secrets only for those who have the chance to cross its threshold: the street façade, with balanced proportions and mild decorative elements, does not offer any clue of the architectural exuberance that we find beyond the wooden gate that opens the way into the inner courtyard. Once inside, one understands the large dimensions of the U-shaped building, with the main façade marked by a grand neoclassical entrance, with a fronton and four columns. The interior retains the pomp of the last century: brightly colored stained glass windows, elaborately painted, wood carvings, wire stuccoes, fireplaces and many other decorative elements. The inscription on the façade indicates the years of the construction, 1925-1926. Arad benefited enormously from the rise and consolidation of the Neuman empire, the industrialist family being the largest tax payers for local budgets. Alfred's son, Francisc, was born in Arad in 1910. In 1935 his brother, Eduard, who ran the Yeast and Alcohol Factory, emigrated to Cuba, so Francisc took over all the family's business, at the age of only 25. The Baron increased the family's wealth, but was also the helpless witness of its loss, in 1948, during nationalization. He left to Switzerland without any money, from there to Salzburg and afterwards, to the USA. All the members of the family showed a real social involvement and solidarity, providing support through their charitable foundations. They showed increased care for their employees and contributed to improving the lives of the inhabitants. The Neuman family financially supported the construction of the imposing Cultural Palace inaugurated in 1913 and other palaces, exquisite jewels of the center of Arad. Today, their name is a true legend, not only in Arad, but throughout the entire Western part of the country. The Neuman House from Horia street fully reflects the grandeur of the famous family, being built with elements of neoclassical architecture and a ground floor rich in decorations, extremely exuberant, preserving today many of the original elements. The current owner has carried out a series of renovation and consolidation works (deepening and basement insulation, attic elevation, repairing the façade etc.). The house benefits from a project of complete remodeling and transformation of the building into a hotel with 23 rooms / 4 apartments / restaurant and SPA. The location of the building is ideal for a hotel - in the center of Arad, opposite the Szantay Palace. Additionally, the generous indoor courtyard can be converted into a summer garden.

In order for the Hat Factory of South Hungary S.A. to come into existence, it required private capital and support from the state and the city of Timișoara, where it operated on the banks of the Bega River. Archives attest that in 1899 the municipality granted, free of charge, to Phillipp Lustein and Wilhelm Keller a plot of land measuring 2 'cadastral acres' near the then-road viaduct and the current central park. The factory was exempt from paying municipal taxes for a decade but committed to providing annual subsidies for each employee. Built in 1899-1900, the building structures bear the signature of the architect Ede Reiter, who was a neighbor to the property. The Hat Factory produced felt and wool hats, felt, and rabbit fur hats, with about 500 employees, two-thirds of whom were women, all assisted by steam-powered machines. Not only were the hats produced modern, but also the facilities provided to the workers – a bath, a dining hall, and relaxation spaces. After the union with Romania, the factory was named the Timișoara Hat Factor y , and then came the communist nationalization. Between 1991-1995, it was privatized through the MEBO method and known as PALTIM SA. After a period of intense cultural activity, the factory's land is now undergoing a modern urban development project with residential and office spaces. The former administrative building, currently a historical monument, is part of this complex built to the highest standards, bringing stories, history, and pedigree to its owner and future generations. Additionally, thanks to architect Ede Reiter, the property presents itself elegantly in the style that was fashionable at the time, Secession. The recent impeccable architectural and structural renovation highlights the beauty of this style and how it has remained relevant and attractive to this day. The ground floor is suitable for a restaurant – perhaps one that showcases the rich and flavorful gastronomy of the city, while the upper floor and attic are spacious and bright spaces, optimal for office activities, private residence, or even a spa. Located on the banks of the Bega River, with boats peacefully floating on the water and a promenade nearby, the property will undoubtedly become a landmark in the city.

Property with garden Timișoara (Romania)

As you cross the bridge from the old Citadel, on the border between the old Iosefin and Elisabetin neighborhoods, i.e. on the current 16 Decembrie Boulevard, once called Petrovaradin, the gaze rises in amazement to encompass the Franz Marschall palace – a spectacular stone canvas on which master hands carved rich decorations. Being part of the Citadel's esplanade, this area could only be developed after 1892, when the town planning plans accepted the expansion of the city and the construction of buildings. It is the time when the architect Martin Gemeinhardt designs beautiful buildings in the styles of the era - Secession and Art Nouveau. Participant in the First World War, politically active and entrepreneur (co-owner of a brick factory), therefore perfectly integrated in the realities of life, Martin Gemeinhardt obtained certification as a construction engineer in 1902 and used his skills to compensate for the everyday gray endowing of the city with fabulously decorated buildings. Generous with vegetal, zoomorphic and figurative motifs, h designed the palaces of Jakab Csendes, Ferencz Marshall, Johan Harlauer (House with Peacocks and Owls), Romulus Nicolin House, Timișoara Savings House Palace, Károly (Karl) Weisz Palace (former Royal Hotel) and Salamon Schnürer and Adolf Hanecker Palace. Their façades, elaborate, elegant and with life pulsating in them, captured the attention of his fellow citizens, who welcomed them with joy and with inaugurations mentioned by the newspapers of the time. As the end of the 19th century and the beginning of the 20th bring the finalization of the boulevard 16 Decembrie, the area has a unity and a symmetry that adds to the monumentality of the buildings. The façades are richly decorated, the roofs are high and at the corners the architects went for towers or aedicula. Thus, the Franz Marschall palace is framed in continuous street fronts formed by buildings of the same style and height regime, arranged on the ground floor and two floors; as a rule, the owner lived in the front part, the rest of the apartments being rented out to those who wished.

The chateau looms in the sky like a beautiful castle, with four defense towers that have only known peacetime. The building, in the German Neo-Renaissance style, was built according to the owner's well-defined plans and sketches on graph paper. The castle concept, Fachwerk wooden elements and natural stone remind of the few medieval houses left standing and invite indulgence and rest – the water channel that partially surrounds it contributes to the calm atmosphere. The wooden tracery and soft yellow make a good home on the façade and anticipate an elegant interior where the oak pieces put on a show – the carefully crafted joinery worthy of a castle, the tables, sideboards and Alktdeutsch-style chairs. The staircase between the floors is also made of wood, ennobled with a red carpet bearing the royalty motif of the lily. Rooms with personality, elegant bathrooms and stylish common spaces make this chateau a popular destination on accommodation booking networks; The chateau offers 20 accommodation units totaling 45 seats, but a reorganization of the space can result in the increase of the accommodation space from 20 units to 32. Another expansion option with 10 more apartments (between 60 and 80 sqm each) and a penthouse (120 sqm) can be done by purchasing separately, from the same owner, the other castle in the vicinity of this complex. The unit is served by an event hall with a capacity of 180 seats, a hunting restaurant with an Austro-Hungarian menu and a bar with a view of the Bavarian brewery, because in the chateau there is a beer factory with a capacity of 30,000 liters produced according to a German law regulating the purity of beer since 1516. The 400-sqm brewery space is rented from the chateau. The microbrewery is perfectly integrated into the landscape and the chateau's activity, as it does not produce noise or smell. There is also a summer garden with two lakes and a waterfall with 200 seats, as well as a salt room with Himalayan salt. Located in Moșnița Noua, on the Main Street, the hotel is much closer to Timișoara and everything the city has to offer; it is located 15 minutes from the center but also from the airport and has the advantage of being taken over as a functional business from the first day.
